    Does anyone have a problem with me:

    1) Converting all www.amazon.com product links to smile.amazon.com links? More info on the Amazon Smile program.

    and/or

    2) Adding a forum referral tag to unaffiliated posted links (I wont overwrite anyone's referral stuff if they use it).

    Neither have any effect on the prices you pay on Amazon as far as I can find, but Smile donates 0.5% to a random charity (or you can pick your favorite on the above link) and forum referral links would earn 4% of w/e you bought off a link from here.

    I'm not super familiar with the Smile program, but I can't think of a good reason not to use it other than being a jerk and hating puppies or w/e.. but cursory google searches send me to a lot of folks angry about amazon affiliate links in general so figured I'd ask first. A grand total of 53 Amazon links have been logged on the forum since SSL was enabled and none of them have had affiliate tags, for what that's worth.

    I suspect this forum will generate approximately $0.30 worth of value off of them, ever, but better than $0 LOL.

    I personally use an amazon smile extension. I rather have a few bucks go to the EFF then some spammer who spams referral links.

    Only issue is you have to be logged in or it won't allow you to view pages from smile links ect.

    They're not mutually exclusive.. If you click a referral link and use the smile program BOTH get their cut.

    Apparently if you're a charity Amazon is even fine with you double dipping lol.

    They must have changed the policy on that, when it started amazon smile was a way for amazon to avoid paying out referral money.

    You can pick what charity you want your stuff to go through: http://smile.amazon.com/

    I have no idea why smile.amazon.com isn't Internet standard.. I'm sure there's some kind of catch somewhere that for every penny they donate they murder a honeybee or something but I can't find it :dunno:
